"Sleeper 1972 (Reimagined)" lyrics
One, two, three, four
When my dad died
The worms ate out both his eyes
His soul flew right up in the sky
And I cried myself to sleep
My mother lies
Alone on her back at night
Adding up hours 'til her demise
She counts herself to sleep
When my sister finds
My body closed up like the blinds
I tell her I promise, it's fine
But she cries herself to sleep
When the men in black ties
Arrive at the house, they're surprised
To find a little girl by your side
In the wood box where you're sleeping
And I still see you
Inside of this god-awful house
You move awfully quiet now
And I still feel you everywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere
You told me this has always been worth living
So, what's really worth living anymore?
When my dad died
The worms ate out both his eyes
His soul flew right up in the sky
And I cried myself to sleep
My mother lies
Alone on her back at night
Adding up hours 'til her demise
She counts herself to sleep
When my sister finds
My body closed up like the blinds
I tell her I promise, it's fine
But she cries herself to sleep
When the men in black ties
Arrive at the house, they're surprised
To find a little girl by your side
In the wood box where you're sleeping
And I still see you
Inside of this god-awful house
You move awfully quiet now
And I still feel you everywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere
You told me this has always been worth living
So, what's really worth living anymore?
